> I built squid 2.5Stable1 on RedHat Linux 7.2 with the following config options:
> configure --enable-cache-digests --enable-underscores --with-aio-threads=30 --with-pthreads
                --enable-storeio=aufs,ufs --enable-removal-policies=heap

> I used gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.2 2.96-108.7.2) to build squid. The
> machines running Squid are Dell 2550 servers, each with dual 1 Ghz CPUs and 1 GB
> of RAM. They each have 15 GB of cache disk. There are three of them configured as
> siblings and I use round-robin DNS records to balance clients between them. Each
> squid cache handles about 60 requests a second.
>
> Here are some of the relevent options in the squid configuration file:
> Cache_peer proxy1 sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only
> Cache_peer proxy2 sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only
> Cache_mem 32 MB
> Cache_swap_low 95
> Cache_swap_high 97
> Maximum_object_size 128 MB
> Maximum_object_size_in_memory 24 KB
> Cache_replacement_policy heap LFUDA
> Memory_replacement_policy heap LFUDA
> Cache_dir aufs /opt/squid/var/cache 15000 53 251
> Cache_store_log none
> Redirect_program /opt/adzap/wrapzap
> Redirect_children 10
> Ident_lookup_access allow all
> Client_db off
> Redirector_bypass on
